Computational Simulation Of Eccentrically Loaded Circular Thin-Walled Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Slender Columns, Mizan Ahmed, Qing Liang, Vipulkumar Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi Jan 2020

Computational Simulation Of Eccentrically Loaded Circular Thin-Walled Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Slender Columns, Mizan Ahmed, Qing Liang, Vipulkumar Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part B

The concrete confinement provided by the circular steel tubes improves the performance of circular concretefilled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns, which have increasingly been employed as high-performance structural members in tall buildings. This paper presents computational and design models for the simulation and design of high strength CFDST slender columns composed of circular thin-walled sections that are eccentrically loaded. The formulation of the computational model is described, which takes into account the influences of concrete confinement, geometric imperfection, second-order, gradual plasticity of steel, and geometric and material nonlinearities. The inverse quadratic method is implemented in computational algorithms which solve the …


Experimental And Numerical Investigations Of Eccentrically Loaded Rectangular Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Columns, Mizen Ahmed, Qing Quan Liang, Vipulkumar I. Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi Jan 2020

Experimental And Numerical Investigations Of Eccentrically Loaded Rectangular Concrete-Filled Double Steel Tubular Columns, Mizen Ahmed, Qing Quan Liang, Vipulkumar I. Patel, Muhammad N. S Hadi

Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences - Papers: Part B

Rectangular concrete-filled double steel tubular (CFDST) columns have increasingly been utilized in high-rise buildings to support heavy loads. However, the responses of eccentrically loaded rectangular CFDST short columns have rarely been studied. This paper reports experimental and numerical investigations into the behavior of rectangular thin-walled short CFDST columns composed of a rectangular inner steel tube loaded eccentrically. Tests on rectangular and square CFDST short columns under eccentric loading and axial loading were carried out to examine their responses to various design parameters, including the cross-sectional dimensions, loading eccentricity, and width-to-thickness ratios of the external and internal tubes. The experimental program …
